Hi there I have a backup server setup to backup another server through an unprivileged user. The unprivileged user is in the sudoers file and kan sudo without password.
My rdiff-backup command: /usr/bin/rdiff-backup --remote-schema 'ssh -C %s nice sudo /usr/bin/rdiff-backup --server --restrict-read-only /' bac...@host.domain.com::/ /data2/backup/host/ So how I see it is that I should be able to read all files, no matter what permissions? However I get errors like this on files owned by root with r/w on user only: ListError /etc/exim4/passwd.client [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/exim4/passwd.client' A test locally on the server I backup with the backup user and sudo gives no trouble. Ideas? -- Rudi Meyer Forlaget Systime _______________________________________________ rdiff-backup-users mailing list at rdiff-backup-users@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/rdiff-backup-users Wiki URL: http://rdiff-backup.solutionsfirst.com.au/index.php/RdiffBackupWiki
